Last nightshade haul for the summer. It's been a tough year for growing chillis due to all the wetness.

Many of the issues faced by myself, my friends, and my colleagues is not because of 'science'. It's because of the systemic issues within academia: job insecurity, low wages, lack of jobs, rampant bullying, and toxic work environments.

I was reading this paper just now, and thought "the text is written in such a weird way", like, it could not even be explained as a "English as a second language" kind of problem. I get to the end, and found out why the text was weird. #AI#GenerativeAI 🧪

Instead of focusing on the negatives, I'm just going to focus on the fact that I am coming out of this experience with a stronger self-conviction and advocacy of my ideas.

Just out of curiosity, how many of you continued with the same tool/topic after your PhD? (Not just in the same field/sub-discipline) #AcadmicSky

Actually, there are still a lot for volcanology, but just in disguise with names like 'Earth Materials' alongside igneous petrology, etc.

A lot of adverts coming in for tenured (assoc/full) profs in volcanology, but not in tenure-track. Why?
